We go on trips literally built around Pai Gow. Dedicated playing blocks paired with great meals and cultural moments—if you can peel yourself away from the table.
Each trip we work with a host casino to reserve Pai Gow tables just for Pai Gow Travel Club members, plus hard-to-snag dinner tables, tickets to shows, art and design excursions, guided nature walks, and did we mention reserved Pai Gow tables? Play blocks are coordinated; dining and cultural moments are always opt-in. Arrive solo or come with a friend. This is an inclusive, women-led group.
A woman-owned and operated Pai Gow Poker travel concept built for people who already love the game. Like really love it. Dedicated play blocks, optional dining, culture, and show access within a very light framework.
Why Join the Club?
-
We all know the feeling of finally getting to the table only to find it full or an absurd minimum. We work with the host casino to organize two daily playing blocks exclusive to PGTC members. The only thing left to chance here should be the cards.
-
We are foodies and we love cocktails. We love art and we love nature. But sometimes all we want to do is play Pai Gow. We offer (awesome) culinary and cultural distractions every day, in case you’re interested in taking a break from the cards. On a hot streak? We’ll catch you next time.
-
Every member of TGPC agrees to operate with respect. We are an inclusive, welcoming group and expect that of all members. Although we subscribe to a low pressure style of framework, we do hope that people will make lasting social connections.
How Does It Work?
-
Each PGTC trip is built around three nights and four-ish days. Day 1 typically kicks off in the evening with a welcome cocktail, but leaves the itinerary open for varying arrivals. Day 2 and Day 3 are where you have two playing blocks each plus one cultural and one culinary distraction each day. Day 4 has one last morning playing block. Scroll down for a sample itinerary.
-
The fee for participation is $500 per person. This covers five reserved gaming blocks and flexible access to the opt-in dining and cultural itinerary. Travel expenses, spending money, and the very important gambling budget are not included. Each opt-in experience will be shared in advance with a fixed price. If you choose to attend, you will be billed accordingly at the end of the trip. Every trip varies, but the goal is the ballpark of: dinner with drinks $200, lunch $75, an architecture tour $50.
-
PGTC will provide a room block code for the preferred casino hotel, which will operate as the Pai Gow home base for the trip, but members are not required to stay there. If you join any culinary or cultural experiences that require transportation, PGTC will arrange a comfortable roundtrip transfer from the host casino. If members want to meet up or ride separately, they can. We are here, but we are also flexible.
-
Each full day there is one culinary and one cultural experience to enjoy with the group. We work hard to make leaving the table worth it. Each experience is optional and priced a la carte. We know what it’s like to finally have your luck turn around when you’re supposed to leave, or suddenly looking for a distraction to change your luck. Part of your fee goes to helping us keep things flexible for everyone.
-
We work with casino hosts to provide two-hour playing blocks exclusive to PGTC members five times per trip: twice daily on Day 2 and Day 3, and a send-off session on the morning of Day 4. You can rely on it being Face Up Pai Gow with at least the Fortune and Ace High bonus bets, and a $50/hand minimum. Once our two-hour block is up, the table becomes public. That means that you are welcome to stick around the table, but the table essentially folds into general casino play.
-
Trips are aimed to fill one Pai Gow Table, that’s just five members plus your host. We are perfect for solo travelers or traveling with one friend. Although every extra-curricular is optional, your host will attend all events, so you never have to worry about showing up alone.
